Recent Sessions
What has been added recently?
New content is added on a monthly cycle. Below are the most recently completed and announced topics.
Pricing Your Services Without Underselling
A practical session examining how professionals in Romania tend to price their services too conservatively and what a more structured approach to rate-setting looks like. The session walks through cost-of-time calculations, market positioning, and the psychological side of quoting a rate to a client.
PFA Registration: What the Process Actually Involves
A written reference document added to the platform covering the registration process for a Persoana Fizica Autorizata in Romania. Not legal advice — a factual overview of the steps, documents involved, and timelines based on publicly available information from ONRC.
Time Budgeting for Side Services: A Realistic Approach
One of the most common mistakes professionals make when starting a side service is underestimating the non-billable time involved — client communication, administration, invoicing, skill maintenance. This session breaks down where time actually goes and how to account for it honestly.
Contract Basics for Romanian Freelancers
A general educational session on what a simple service contract between a freelancer and a client typically contains in Romania. Not legal advice. The session covers the elements that make a contract clear and enforceable in general terms, based on publicly documented standard practices.
Upcoming
What topics are being prepared?
These areas are in preparation for future sessions. Dates are confirmed when sessions are ready.
Finding Your First Client Without a Network
A session on the practical approaches professionals use to find their first clients in Romania when they do not have an existing freelance network — what works, what takes longer than expected, and what to avoid.
Invoicing and Record-Keeping for PFA Holders
The administrative side of running a side service under a PFA — what records need to be kept, how invoices should be structured, and how to avoid common errors that create complications at tax time.
Knowing When to Stop: Evaluating a Side Project That Is Not Working
An underserved topic. This session covers how to assess whether a side project has run its course and what a structured wind-down looks like, including how to handle existing clients and obligations.
Digital Presence for Freelancers: The Minimum Viable Setup
What kind of online presence a freelancer actually needs versus what is optional. A practical session on the minimum necessary steps to be findable and credible without spending months building an elaborate portfolio.
Content Development
How new topics get selected
Topics are not chosen based on what is popular in other markets. They are selected based on the actual questions that come up in the Romanian professional context — either through direct contact from attendees or through patterns observed across sessions.
When a topic requires specialist knowledge — legal, fiscal, or otherwise — the content is developed in consultation with people who hold that knowledge, and the educational nature of the material is maintained clearly. Sessions describe how things work in general terms. They do not substitute for professional advice.
If there is a topic you think should be covered, the contact page has a message form. Topics that come up repeatedly are more likely to be developed into sessions.
